Advent for Everyone: Matthew 
(A Daily Devotional)
by N. T. Wright
Advent for Everyone: Matthew provides readers with an inspirational guide through the Advent season, from the First Sunday of Advent through the Saturday after the Fourth Sunday of Advent. Popular biblical scholar and author N. T. Wright provides his own Scripture translation and brief reflection to guide readers through the season toward the wonder and joy of Christmas. This book is suitable for both individual and group study and reflection.
MY BOOK REVIEW:  
4 stars:  4/5 star rating
What a great way to usher Christmas into your heart than to focus on the Christmas story as told through the Biblical scripture.  I love that the entire scriptural text is included in each day's devotional reading.  There is a lesson and reflection for each week and then further, divided by day of the week,  and a question to ponder for each day as well.   This is biblically sound teaching and I found that a few views were ones that are entirely new to me.  That gives me a great deal to ponder and reflect upon.  I am using this as an individual study guide and devotional.
I received a digital ARC of this book from netgalley and Westminster John Knox Press in exchange for my honest review.   All opinions expressed are my own and I was not required to write a positive review.
